3-D Consistent and Robust Segmentation of Cardiac Images by Deep Learning With Spatial Propagation

TL;DR: A method based on deep learning to perform cardiac segmentation on short axis Magnetic resonance imaging stacks iteratively from the top slice to the bottom slice iteratively using a novel variant of the U-net.
Journal ArticleDOI

Smoothing and matching of 3-D space curves

TL;DR: This work builds upon the seminal work of Kishon et al. (1990), where curves are first smoothed using B-splines, with matching based on hashing using curvature and torsion measures, but introduces two enhancements that allow a more accurate estimation of position, curvature, torsions, and Frénet frames along the curve.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Building visual maps by combining noisy stereo measurements

TL;DR: The idea of a Realistic Uncertain Description of the Environment (RUDE) which is local, i.e attached to a specific reference frame, and incorporates both, information about the geometry and about the parameters measuring this geometry is introduced.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deformable biomechanical models: application to 4D cardiac image analysis.

TL;DR: A generic volumetric biomechanical model from different image modalities and segmenting time series of medical images using this model can play an important role in the extraction of useful quantitative local parameters of cardiac function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polyrigid and polyaffine transformations: A novel geometrical tool to deal with non-rigid deformations – Application to the registration of histological slices

TL;DR: A novel kind of geometrical transformations, named polyrigid and polyaffine, efficiently code for locally rigid or affine deformations with a small number of intuitive parameters, which are smooth with respect to their parameters.
